MISSION:
The MMRRC at 大象传媒 distributes and cryopreserves scientifically valuable, genetically engineered mouse models of human development and disease to serve the biomedical research community. Since 1999 we have served as a member of an NIH funded national network of breeding and distribution facilities plus an information coordinating center serving together as NIH鈥檚 premier repository of spontaneous and induced mutant mouse and cell lines (). 
The MMRRC aims to protect and enhance the mouse models, make them more accessible, and to support rigor and reproducibility in animal models research. Our mission also includes innovative research designed to enhance the resource.
